She makes them feel comfortable and educates them on their loved ones condition. She is a leader on our unit and in the RNIII role. She is consistently our charge nurse and staff knows we will have a good day when she is our leader. She is a member of AACN and also holds the office of Treasurer.

Connie is a seasoned nurse who deals well with complicated, extremely ill patients. She is also very good with relaying information to physicians and has a good relationship with many MD's on the different services we deal with i.e. Neuro, Pulmonary, Trauma etc. Connie has been a nurse many years and is always eager to pass on her exceptional knowledge and skill when needed to make MICU a wonderful place to work.”
